that's density!

[oskay]

No, they're basically the same density. Only significant difference is how elastic the rubber is in each ball.

wiseass, its just fake!!! I clearly see the cut before the sad one lands!!!! ;P

[oskay]

Why the *bleep* would you fake something that's so freaking easy to do? Wiseass.

Haha that's really cool, here's my analysis.

The sad ball weighs more therefore it drops not only harder but it stays on the ground when dropped, you dropped it at the same time to get people to think they weigh the same, but that's not true no matter what weight two items will drop at the same time (Einstein's Law), based on the Air Resistance of course.

[oskay]

They do weight the same; they're just two very different types of rubber. One is bouncy, one isn't.

Also, you're thinking of Galileo, not Einstein.

PLAY WHIT MY BALLS! TELL ME WHICH ONE IS SAD AND WHICH ONE IS HAPPY!! you can also play with the banana stick next to my balls (but that is optional ;) )

[KillFrenzie]

If you put them in your mouth they'd both be happy.

totally wrong and not true

[MrSethsiPodz]

ur a fucking idiot

[magmasceptre]

sad balls are less elastic and releases the energy through sound energy thus the sound when dropped is louder. If i'm right the reason why you have to go so low to demonstrate it is that if you drop it from higher up, sad ball will jump too.
